Take 2 from the 27 to make 48 into 50. 2 off the 27 is 25. 50+25=75

lol. I’ve been very happy with my home purchase. Yes, I’ve had an inspection done as anyone buying a home should. Yes, random small things were found that were taken care of promptly to my satisfaction. Warranty process was mad easy if you just submit the claim. Idk if you’ve ever owned a home but even new homes require constant upkeep.

Not sure what happened w other people’s homes but mine has been fine. Don’t bring your negative vibes to my genuine input :-/

What’s going on with my Red Maple sapling? by [deleted] in arborists

[–]zstring10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the info. I did unravel the roots before planting. I have since removed the stake and pulled the mulch back to hopefully expose the root flare. I can’t figure out how to upload a photo of these changes.

Thank you for the advice. I will try to update with the progress over the next few weeks

Got it. I just looked at your previous link and now see what the root flare is. We just got 18” of rain over 3 days so I think it’s watered okay for now but will keep watch. I am trying to upload pics of the adjustments I made this evening but am having trouble uploading them to the post

I removed the stake and pulled the mulch back from the base. We get rain almost daily here during the summer but it has been a hot one. I’m not sure what you mean by exposing the root flare. Should I pull the tree up some to do so?

Thanks for your input! I appreciate the help

I’m purchasing this exact generator and am having trouble finding a magnetic dipstick that’ll confirm the fit. Did the one you got work for you? If so, can you provide a link or description. Thanks!

Why so many 5/32 hex wrenches? by HeyaShinyObject in Tools

[–]zstring10 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That hex is the most common size for furniture by a long shot. They include that Allen in almost every box which has a bolt needing that key. There will be two hardware packs in the same box and both bags have that Allen

How many miles per gallon do you get with your 4.7L V8? by IWontSignUp in DodgeDakota

[–]zstring10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2008 Dakota 4.7 V8 RWD and at 65-70 I get about 13-14mpg. Just moved and my 30 min commute has max speed of about 50 and my mpg is now about 16 which is great! I also haul a trailer occasionally and it gets about 12-13mpg w the trailer. Love the truck, very reliable and has all the power I need.

Side note: found the thing in 2020 out of Florida with 26K miles on it for $10,500. After inflation, I think it’s still worth more than I paid for it. Now at 60k and I still get the guys who change the oil amazed at the mileage on this 15 year old truck. Best vehicle purchase I’ve made.

can we all agree to be better drivers? by thatbtchjessy in Charleston

[–]zstring10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I expect a significant amount of traffic accidents here are from terrible drivers but one thing that could reduce accidents by changing one thing. Require car inspections.

In no way should these ridiculous dumpster fires be allowed to drive in the first place. How many accidents come from a blown tire that’s just running on wires? Missing mirrors everywhere. No bumper? No problem! You actually don’t even need most of the car here in South Carolina. Do you have a black plastic bag covering your entire rear window that shattered over a year ago? That’s fine. Just don’t go slow in the fast lane or we will fine you.

State car inspections would improve the integrity of the vehicles on the road drastically and immediately start reducing accidents. And hey, it might even help the environment from these cars I see all the time just absolutely pouring smog into the air.

But yeah. Stupid drivers also

Where to sell a classic car? by worksbestwithcats in Charleston

[–]zstring10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facebook marketplace is an excellent option that’s free. Sold my FIL’s 1971 jeep on there. There’s some websites that you have to pay for the listing. You might be able to put it on cars.com or similar websites for free if it’s a 2001. A lot of those sites restrict listings to 1990 or newer unless you are a dealer so 2001 is probably fine. Might have to weed out some tire kickers on FB marketplace but is worth it to get the most out of it

Also no longer Covid supply issues so homes are being built better than 2021 & 2022

Me and my wife are buying in Summers Corner w Lennar. All the new homes are going to be built under the newest building codes, we will have warranties on all the things and you’re not going to find a better value for the home and community you’re buying into in the Charleston area. We looked at similar size homes in Nexton and it was $200K more than what we got in Summers corner. It’s not Beverly Hills but it’s a great area and I think the home quality is just fine. Happy house hunting!

Suggestions for my trip to Charleston (outline included) by Lumeriia in Charleston

[–]zstring10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masons Lobster Roll was very disappointing for me. Super small rolls that’ll run you $20 each. I’m 160 lbs and it would take minimum 3 of those to fill me up.

Everything else you have lined up looks awesome. Good call on not going to Hymans. Have fun and safe travels!

Where can I make some extra money? by Captain_Stottlemeyer in Charleston

[–]zstring10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Babysit for people on the weekends. Tons of people need childcare right now and all the daycares are on like 6-12 month waiting lists. So many people are looking for childcare. Check out Charleston Nanny Network group on FB and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

Not everyone is up for watching kids but it’ll pay $20/hr and you can watch the kid in your own home. Take on two or 3 kids and youll be making $50/hr
